Cabinef Gl lub The following do noi appear in flue picfures: - Corbii' Wesenberg Ja Cummings Herberi Haglund Lloyd Hooper QZWAJ CURTAIN Bob Aschenbrenner: Very fall, dark, and handsome, wi+h an impressive slruf and a smile lhal gels 'em-'em per- faining 'ro 'rhe weaker sex. l-lis firsl dramalic appear- ance, in Sevenlh Heaven, caused a minor rio+ noi' so long ago. As presidem' of 'rhe senior class he reigns wi+h dignify and a slrong arm. Belh BarneH: Our Be'rhal's a lavorile, for her cheerful laugh and snappy iokes are familiar lo everyone. The gym's her Ufopia,-for she loves sporls,-which doesn r mean Thai' Belh can r hold her own in class, for a hard head makes her one of our 'rop-ranking s+udenl's. Nexf year 'rhey'll be calling her Burlingame's gill +0 Pomona. Vera Behrendl: Sincere, frank, yel nor offensive: slow 'ro Ri decide, buf firm in opinion-all l'hese lrails 'fend lo make Vera one of our besl public-speakers. A brillianl s+u- denl, a hard worker, a born debaler, she a+ lirsl seems all seriousness. Bur Vera does gel +he giggles, and her grand sense of humor and slurdy philosophical oullook keep us all in good spirils. chard BenneHs: Five-feel-four, a big grin, l'he hearl of a sporlsman, and capilalislic ambilionsg roll fhem all 'ro- gelher and you have Bud Bennells, Burlingame's pei quali+y-nor-quan'ri+y man. l.oafing's his hobby, and he much prefers +he wide-open spaces lo a classroom. A woman-ha+er and proud of i+. CALLS Jack Beulllerx Whelher programmed as a s+age s+ree+- washer, a chorisfer in lhe oralorio, Elijah, or merely as a member of your sevenlh-period class. Jack is by name and by characler a Liflle Giant Blond and immaculaiely groomed, 'lhe Lillie Giani of Spring, '37, has a special place, we're sure, reserved for him in The world. Alice Biscay: The girl wi+h +he grin, we call her, for Alice's conlagious smile has never lel' us down. Jusl how The library and main office will gel' along wilhouf lhe good- naiured help of her willing hands, we don'+ know. One girl 1'ha+ everyone likes: one girl Thai will go places as a secrelary. Yvonne Bise: The gal wi'rh 'rhe dreamy eyes is Yvonne, and behind +hem resls an acfive imaginalion +ha+ bids fair lo bring her fame in lhe world of lilerafure and lellers. She has originalily-plus, a sympafhefic hearl, and a wide knowledge of human nafure. She likes every- one: and, wha+'s more, everyone likes Yvonne. Doris Brownlee: Known aboul school as 'The lillle blue-eyed girl wilh 'rhe beauliful red-gold hair, who flashes across +he fooflighfs in slep wilh nimble-fooled Ernie Flook, a well-known alumnus of Burlingame High. We have also heard Thai she's an equeslrienne of some nofe. More power lo you, Doris! Eleanor Bryan+: Defi and nea+ in homemaking, charming and congenial in 'rhe social whirl, Dresden-like lil'+le Ellie is CURTAIN CALLS a gal affer our own hearfs. A sfeamsfress of merif and a compefenf fiddler, fhis silken-haired young miss will make some lucky man a model wife. Sam Bucchieri: Tall, dark, wifh black, sparkling eyes and a cheery hello for all his pals. Loafing's his hobby, baskef- ball his sporf, and he hopes some day fo be flying high as a fransporf pilof. I-le's a friendly fellow, a swell sporf, and an alfogefher good guy. We like him, and we wish him happy landings. Rosemary Bulling: Poor liffle girl! l-low she'd love fo affain a dignified five-feef-four! Buf, alas, we fear fhaf fhis liffle bif of life, so peppy and brighf, is doomed fo efernal disappoinfmenf: she will never reach even five- feef-fwol So five-feef-and-one-half-inch consoles her- self wifh fennis and kniffing. Cheer up, Rosemary: precious fhings come in small packages! Bob Buffon: A perfecf big-brofher fype, wifh warm, under- sfanding blue eyes, Bob fowers over admiring members of fhe weaker sex wifh nonchalance and confidence. Bob is fhoroughly a boy's boy, buf mosf assuredly is nof alien fo his feminine public, whose hearfs fluffer when- ever he inclines his brown, curly head fheir way. Conley Byrnes: Tall, good-looking, nonchalanf, he wends his way among his fellow-sfudenfs, armed wifh a disarm- ing smile and a cheery hello! Quief and reserved, buf when he speaks we all lisfen. Cars and airplanes are his chief inferesfs and avocafion. However, in spife of his mechanical flair, he has fime fo make friends, and many of fhem. Lucille Cannon: Achieving dignify wifh quiefness and mafurify, fhe girl wifh fhe preffy name, Lucille, is soofh- ing and resfful as a companion and friend. The Cannons' daughfer is also a very apf arf-sfudenf, wifh many. many prinfs, posfers, and oils fo her credif. Linval Casfle: If silence is golclen, Linval is wealfhy, for he's one of fhe quiefesf boys in 'rhe class. Good-nafured, a fine lisfener, and a fine friend, according fo fhose who know him besf. His speed-boaf claims mosf of his spare fime. l-le boasfs no ambifion, has a sfrong dislike for bank-nighfs. Alec Cereghino: Cherry is fhe liffle man wifh fhe big sfuff of B. l-l. S.: Cherry is fhe fellow who carries fhe ball-nof only on fhe foofball field, buf also in our Sfudenf Gov- ernmenf. Those of us who have wafchecl l937's Sfudenf- Body Presidenf as he has consisfenfly crashed fhrough 'rhe line fo vicfory can say wifh all sincerify, There is a man affer my own hear'rl Mary Ciarlo: Shiny black hair and flashing dark eyes make a perfecf background for Mary's sparkling smile. The CURTAIN CALLS qualifies of vivaciousness and 'rhoroughness are seldom found fogelher in human nal'ure, bu+ Mary combines vivaci+y and conscienliousness lo make her borh a very willing worker and an enioyable companion. Elhelynne Clark: Mickey, once fhe gay young rowdy whose H robusl voice and infeclious laugh rang merrily Through l'he corridors, is now a slrikingly good-looking girl, seri- ously considering her fufure. And wilh her same old sponfaneous enfhusiasm, her lremendous energy, and her level head, she will surely make a success of anylhing she aflempls. arold Clarke: Tha+ cloud of dusf you iusl' saw whizzing pasr was Pally Clarke. He's 'l'ha+ way all 'rhe lime . . . always racing aboul 'rhe halls, gehiing lhings done in his slraighfforward elilicienl way. Usually all lhal one can see of iovial, smiling Pally is a swirl of dusl' sailing down lhe hall, accomplishing 'rhings-Presfol-iusl like +ha+. John Coacl: In Hollywood, a LeRoy or Capra would nab him for lhe silenl Marx Bro+her's sland-in. ln Burlingame High we already know him as Harpo, lhe genial, curly- haired chap. He slides a mean Trombone, and has a six+h sense when il' comes lo radio. Phofography occu- pies his spare momenls, and chuckling, his odd ones. D Alfred Colby: Whefher behind 'rhe varsily loolball or be- hind +he gavel of lhe Associaled Boy Sfudenis, Al Colby clings inslinclively To 'rhal ralher rarely possessed Amer- ican Sporfsmanship qualily. Fair-haired, wi+h a friendly grin and lighl blue eyes, 'the well-liked boys' associalion presidenl is sure of a 'Friendly spol' in 'rhe world. John Collins: Carrel defines a genius as an ordinary being wi'rh one brain-parl abnormally developed. lf ihis be +rue, John is 'the rule-proving exceprion. While The luminous qualify of his wriling is noihing if noi genius, he is equally dislinguished in olher fields. And more valuable fhan lilerary abilily alone is a slrangely wonder- ful and all-loo-rare spiri'rual qualily, complemenled by an ear+hy sense of humor, enabling him lo make game of l'ha+ which would make game of him. James Connelly: Jimmy, lhe boy wifh The ligh+, curly hair and lireckled, snub nose, seems +o have grown 'fall over nighl: ln facf, he is beginning 'ro oulgrow 'lhe liH'le boy's face which, combined wi+h a sincere and congenial per- sonalify. makes him a well-liked senior, whelher in class. in 'rhe band, or jerking sodas behind +he counfer a+ Dodd's. Bob Considine: Deep blue eyes, louched wilh a spark of Irish humor, dark brown, curly hair, and a manly sl'ride CURTAIN CALLS are a few of The infriguing ingredienfs ThaT combine To make up This lad of meriT. Friendliness and good humor fairly radiaTe from his crinkly smile To his warm, deep voice. Annabelle Cook: None of us really dislikes a coqueTTe, which is lucky for This aTTracTive dark-haired girl, for she cerfainly can fluTTer a wicked eyelash. Seriously, Though, Annabelle has aTTained remarkable heighTs in scholasTic and musical fields. Keep up The good work, Annabelle, and be careful of Those eyes. BeTTy CourTer: Miss Nimble Fingers is a deserving TiTle for one of The members of The BeTTy clan. This Time iT is BeTTy Courfer, and can she make The TypewriTer keys dance! Buf BeTTy ouTshines The TypewriTer in liveliness, for There is seldom a momenT when her brown eyes aren'T sparkling. BeTTy CrockeTT: Black eyes ThaT fairly radiafe good-naTure. a cheerful land sillyl giggle, and sofT black hair all go To make BeTTy, anoTher member of The qualiTy-noT-quan- Tify-club, an aTTracTive member of The senior class. Our smallesf senior, BeTTy is a TalenTed arTisT, and her meTicu- lously prepared posTers are The pride of The school. Jim Crump: A regular American high-school hero is This genial lad wiTh The wavy hair. He ToTes a Tricky TooTball, swings in The approved Benny Goodman fashion, and seTs all The gals' hearTs afluTTer. BuT alas and alack, 6od's gifT To The women plans To lavish all his aTTenTion on The birdies in The Trees when he seTs up camp wiTh The Old Ranger. James Cummings: Jim is disTincTive by way of a fine crop of pale reddish freckles Topped by a mop of almosT- colorless, wavy hair. He has a cheery smile and a fine personaliTy, buT his naTural shyness and reserve make him one of The quieTesT boys in The class. Fred Dakin: Wifhouf sfage-crew-Fredo The lighfs and The curTains and The seTs around Burlingame High wouldn'T funcfion. Small, quick, and acTive, This ardenT Hi-Y-er and T-Square-er is full of fun. JusT a liTTle girl-shy, Fredo plans To reTire inTo The proverbial dark-room and Take up phoTography affer graduaTion. George Daufermanz Burlingame's big finance-cheer is This small, wiry Napoleon of The BudgeT. He has a hard head when iT comes To The figures, buf a sofT hearT for The ladies and a friendly hullo for The resT of us. Can usually be found loafing in BenneTT's or roaming on The avenoo. Laurence Day: Smoofh-moving, broad-shouldered Larry is well known for his sense of humor and quirking grins. He kicks fhe furf wifh a defermined foofball, rounds fhe CURTAIN CALLS frack wifh pracficed ease, and is an aquafic ace. Dahlia and radish flourish wifh equal enfhusiasm beneafh his clever gardener's fouch. Peggy Deane: Enigma: fhe obscure or ambiguous: any- fhing fhaf puzzles or baffles. Thaf's Webs+er's definifion of an enigma, and fhaf's Peg. l-ler safurnine counfen- ance gives no hinf of fhe fremendous, rollicking sense of humor fhaf lies righf beneafh fhe surface: similarly, her gruff manner gives no inkling of a soff hearf and greaf sense of iusfice fhaf she unsuccessfully affempfs fo conceal. Lorraine DeMarfini: l-lusfling, busfling, pefife Lorraine has high ambifions along fhe line of privafe secrefaryship. Righ+ now, however, Lorraine spends her spare minufes on a pair of roller-skafes, and her exfra acfivifies include glee and homemaking. Rainie has a friendly nod of her dark curly head and a flashing smile for all. Charloffe Diberf: A wise-crack, a boisferous chuckle, a playful poke, and a mop of blond hair clash by. An inno- cenf bysfander scrafches an amazed head, gazes affer a wisp of fog, and decides, CharloH'e musf be around! Generally conceded fo be fhe besf-nafured and friend- liesf senior, Charloffe fops fhem all as a giggle- and gag- provider. Roberf Dierker: When a fall, blond, gum-chewing indi vidual swirls pasf us, surrounded by a smile and a brown Ford roadsfer, we immediafely recognize Bob Dierker. A double for Gary Cooper any fime. his highesf ambi- fion is fo have a Buick fo replace fhe presenf V-8. Quief and well-liked, Bobqs chief inferesfs are glee and me- chanical drawing. Cyril Dieu: Few of us have ever seen Cyril wifhouf his French horn barring a silver way before him. A serious- minded recluse, wifh eyes fhaf fwinkle ouf warnings of a mischievous nafure under if all, Cyril passes among us, dreaming of his gun and fishing-rod, peering over his French horn. The enfire class is beffer for his presence. Charles Dole: Formally Charles Dole. informally iusf plain Charley, he wields a deff firsf-chair violin-bow and a sure-fire dramafic abilify wifh fhe same casual enfhu- siasm. A punsfer of fhe firsf rank, Charley's delighfful sense of humor and quief poise make him equally af ease in class or on fhe dance-floor. Ellen Douglas: Fair of skin, fair of hair, and fair of nafure, fall, graceful Ellen and her lovely friendliness have a special place in fhe hearfs of all her acquainfances. An afhlefe of merif, one of Mr. Young's bass-viol pluckers, and a silver-fongued speaker, we know fhaf Our Friend Je Bil Bil CURTAIN CALLS Ellen can look forward wilh confidence io a slar-sludded fulure. anne Douglass: An erernal wise-cracker and yarn- spinner, Jeanne is anolher of our Burlingame dynamos. l-ler merry laughler and cheerful l-li! can mosf ofren be heard issuing from a seal nexl lo Muriel Frey. We wouldn r know, buf Jeanne boasls an aversion lo human cars and nosey neighbors. Could 'rhal be we? l Dower: Look closely info +he cryslal! There you will see a chemis+ working in an immense laboralory, labor- ing far inro The nighl-revolulionizing lhe enrire field of chemical science. The vision fades: buf remember al- ways +ha+ handsome Bill, wifh his lwinkling eyes, holds lhe fufure of chemislry in his hands. Greer fhings in fhis chap! l Downey: An aclive member of +he T-square club, sec- ond rrombone in +he school band, a hard-working mem- ber of 'rhe foolball squad--'rhese are a few of 'rhe acfivifies lhal' Bill has raken par! in during his high school career. By far fhe mosr remarkable lhings aboul him, lhough, are his enlhusiaslic ourlook on life and fhe assurance 'rhaf he offers anyone who is foriunale enough lo bask in 'rhe warmlh of his ever-ready smile. Elizabelh Duval: Slraighf lo Burlingame from benealh a iropical moon, Elizabeih brings lo us lales of glamour and a pasr filled wirh pleasanl memories. Her slay wifh us has been a shorr one, bul' nor loo shorl lo show lo us her alerl ihinking, abiliry 'ro speak. fascinaling manner, and excellenl' lilerary abilily. Dick Dwan: So i'r's Hi fer +h' hifher an' +h' bonny Irish Coas+ when we look info 'rhe smiling eyes of lreland's Richard Michael Dwan. The blilhe, gay spiril of +ha'r merry land hangs on his brow 'midsi a lock of rousled hair. I+ walls lhrough our hearls on his golden lenor 'song, and il' rings in our ears in his poelry and speech. Comrade! Carry all rhal' our wilh you info 'rhe world. and no+hing can bar rhe way! Mariorie Eldred: Here is a quiel girl, sure enough, bul so very nice +o know! l-ler pleasanl smile shows a sense of fun benealh a shy exlerior. Sraid and capable Marge Eldred appears, bul lwinkling blue eyes belie her digni- fied mien. We know she's capable-and lols of fun. Too-a girl everyone immedialely wanls lo know. Rulheda Elliorr: Tall, willowy, very allracrive, Myrl, as she is known lo her friends, is well known abour school for her vivacious personalily and conslanr giggling. An ac- rive member of rhe glee club and hospilalily commirlee, Rulheda aspires lo become an inferior decoralorg and iudging from her arl record, her aspiralion will become a realily. CURTAIN CALLS Ralph EllioH: Ralph's lhoughls are winged ones, surely: for he lives in a world of mechanical birds, and his life is a pol'en'rial force in 'lhe field of avialion. We all know fhe li'r+le dark man To be a sfore-house of novel ideas. slimulaling proiecls of every descriplion, and lus+y ideals for living. Tom Elmendorf: Tall, handsome, modesf, he guards lhe co-op wi+h an eagle eye, a sfrong arm, and a friendly And whal can I do for you, Son? Fond of foolball, science, and a cer1'ain young lady whom he can fre- quenlly be seen squiring aboul school. l-le's bound for Slanford and an lvl. D.: and wirh all our hearrs we say. Good luck, Tom! Carol Eschen: Our alrraclive, popular, compelenl Service Poinl' Commissioner, Esh, as she is known lo her friends, is well known and liked as a sporlswoman, an induslrious worker, and a gay and amusing companion. Esh is al- ready an unusually clever wrifer, which hinls a+ 'rhe early affainmenf of her life-long ambi'rion-aulhorship. Jean Eschelman: Jeannie is lhe li'r'rle lass who quielly pur- sues her own sweel way and leads our handsome laddies a merry chase. Dainly she is, and graceful on lhe dance- floor. A charming lillle girl, always well dressed and forever exercising fhe powers of her lovely eyes and bewilching sol:+ voice. Oh, no, you can'+ miss Jeannie. Belaly Ewen: Ewen-pronounced you win. And +ha+'s iusl whal everyone says abouf Belly. She's a four-s+ar winner in band, and +ha+ isn r all, for nimble-fingered Be++y has high hopes of some day becoming a surgical nurse. Those who have walrched her work in 'rhe lab would bel lheir shir+s on sure success for Bef! Doro+h.y Fancher: Typically 'rhe American ouldoor girl, auburn-haired Dol plays everylhing from badminfon +0 soccer wi'rh ease and skill. The 'For+una+e possessor of a greal deal of wim, wigor, and wi+ali+y, Do'r's swell- developed sense of humor adds zesl 'ro even a ge++ing- deader hen-par+y. We'd pu'r our money on Dol s am- bi+ion and efficiency +0 win every Time. Dorolhy Farquer: She's +all and slim, a girl you've oflen seen in 'rhe library. She's ra+her shy and quiet buf her whimsical sense of humor and earnesf conscienfiousness have won our whole-hearled respect A musical lrend, for she's an ac+ive member of 'rhe Band and G-lee Club, and we've walched her gel several silver B's, loo.
